This month's move is Mrs. Miniver, starring Greer Garson and Walter Pigeon. The movie was made while Britain was being hammered by the Germans during World War II. The movie is unabashedly patriotic and served its purpose of lifting the morale of the British.
It was considered so important that Mrs. Miniver's patriotic speech was printed on leaflets and dropped behind the German lines to show them the British resolve.
It's great entertainment, too.
Friday, May 5, 1:30 - 4pm, Shoreline - Lake Forest Park Senior Center, 18560 1st Ave NE #1, southernmost building on the Shoreline Center campus. Parking in south lot. Drinks for sale during movie.
